Breast Cancer Comfort Hearts

Comfort Hearts is a volunteer powered endeavor. We make soft, heart shaped pillows for breast cancer survivors that are distributed to patients via hospitals and doctors offices throughout the Valley. These pillows are given to people at the time of surgery to be utilized in their recovery. We need volunteers of all ages and expertise to cut, stitch, stuff, and attach labels.

Since May 2004, over 7000 hearts have been provided to patients at no charge through Tina’s Treasures at Virginia Piper Cancer Center at Scottsdale Shea Healthcare, Cancer Support Community and other surgi-centers. Hearts are always available at Bernina Connection for those who need them.

We rely solely on donations from people (like you) who are touched by and support our project by providing us with the means to purchase our supplies. We invite you to join us to make Comfort Hearts so we can really make a difference for someone experiencing breast cancer.

Call 602-553-8350 to let us know that you are coming and if you are bringing your sewing machine so we can plan for machines, work stations and fabric. Working kids are welcome!
